Limerick diocese helping young people mark big events virtually

The diocese of Limerick wants to help young people mark the rites of passage they are missing out on due to the coronavirus pandemic.

They will hold a number of virtual ceremonies over the coming weeks to celebrate several transitions young people usually make at this time.

The Catholic Church in Limerick will mark leaving cert students who are missing out on graduation ceremonies, children who are at confirmation age and young children who had to forgo their first holy communion.

The Catholic Bishop of Limerick Brendan Leahy has been telling Joe Nash on Limerick Today when each of these events will be taking place.
